With just the one lift it took over two hours to get all the cars down by which time the exhibitors for the next show had started
arriving. They was a large variety of vehicles on show from trikes to 44 tonne lorries and with all sorts of hot rods, low riders and custom cars in between. Part of the Autotron set up is a permanent car museum which even without the show would be well worth a visit,
with a huge range of cars and motor bikes from the dawn of motoring, and even a couple of light aircraft hanging from the roof! Because we had exhibitor passes we were allowed in the museum for free.
The selection of model cars on display in the museum
was quite staggering and must be worth a fortune. Driving in Holland was quite an education, apart from driving on the right hand side, any gap between you and the car in front is instantly filled by a Eurobox or even a lorry and trailer so travelling in
convoy is something of an experience. Most of the British contingent went out Saturday night;. which was a little difficult because all the cars were locked away in the show hall; to sample the
local cuisine and managed to end up in a Chinese restaurant. Except Gordon and Roger who somehow navigated their way to an Irish Pub in s'Hertenbosch - is that a surprise or what?
The journey back was a little less frantic, because I'd opted for the 7 o'clock ferry and Mal and Roger for the afternoon sailing.
